Hot Air Balloon Drifting Over a Summer Countryside
Coloring guide
Above rolling hills floats a big patterned hot air balloon with a woven basket hanging underneath. Zigzag bands, a row of little circles and plenty of stripes cover the balloon, so there's lots to color. Two small birds fly close by, and puffy clouds fill the sky. Down below, a cozy house with a chimney sits beside a winding path, patchwork fields and tall cypress-style trees. A large leafy tree stands near a wooden fence on the left, and daisy-like flowers, some with smiling faces, fill the bottom corners. Bright reds, oranges and yellows on the zigzag stripes will make the balloon pop against a soft blue sky. Younger kids can start with the big balloon panels, and older kids can take their time on the flowers and fields.
